About Eastwood Rust Converter
This high-tech formula halts residual rust in its tracks and converts it into a black protective polymeric coating that eliminates the need for sanding. The converted protective coating is a suitable primer, and is compatible with most top coats. Additionally, the protective coating will seal the surface against moisture to prevent future rust growth. Simply remove loose rust with a wire brush, then apply Eastwood’s Rust Converter. Allow to dry, then top coat it with a quality coating, such as Eastwood’s Chassis Black. Single component; no more mixing.
Due to regulations pertaining to paint recycling, at this time we are unable to ship the aerosol to Alberta, Canada.

The surface should be clean and dry before application of Rust Converter. If moisture is present or the surface is damp, it can cause the product to dry milky white or not adhere to surface.
When preparing the surface, it is important not to take it down to the bare metal. If this occurred, a metal primer is needed in place of the rust converter. To prepare the surface, remove loose particles of rust and debris with a wire brush or rag. Remove any grease, oil, or salt residue using PRE. Please note that any residue left on the surface will interfere with the adhesion of the product.
Eastwood Rust Converter should be stored in a cool dry place, protected from freezing or temperatures above 100 degreesF. Optimum results are obtained when the surface temperature and the product are between 50 degreesF and 95 degreesF. Do not apply if the surface temperature is below 50 degreesF as it will take longer for the product to react and form a hard surface. This can also cause the product to dry milky white or not fully adhere to the rust. If the temperature of the surface is significantly higher than 95 degreesF, it can cause some of the components to evaporate too quickly and interfere with adhesion.
Application — It is important to apply a thin coat first and allow it to dry before applying a second coat. Allow the surface to cure for 48 hours and protect it from moisture, rain or dew. On thick areas or deep encrustations of rust, it is important to wire-brush these areas to as level to the surface as possible without removing all the rust. The product will absorb into deep rust, leaving little product on the surface, resulting in rust bleed-through if not properly prepped.

Goes on easy and seems to work
Review by Jeff 51 -
Value Quality Price I have not painted over this yet, but it went on easily over rusted area with brush. Turned black very quickly like advertised. Looks like it will be good surface to paint over. Using it under cab of my 51 Chevy Truck. Plan to use rust encapsulator over it, then truck bed liner.

Great Product
Review by jwbronco74 -
Quality Price Value All the rust areas I've been working on, I clean off surface with a wire brush wheel and then coat over it with the rust converter. Seems to work great, just like advertised. It forms a good protective barrier to keep rust from coming back again and makes a good paintable surface.

When will it dry?
Review by gltoro -
Price Value Quality I wire brushed the rusted areas, cleaned as directed, and sprayed. It took 4 days to dry. Some areas turned black as noted while others remained the same. I finally dried it with a heat gun. I'll try again on other parts.

Works great on rust...watch bare and painted surfaces
Review by Bobby -
Price Value Quality I just began using the product on my 77 MGB project car which has a lot of rust. So far I wire brushed the rust and cleaned all surfaces. After application, the results were as advertised. My only concern (my fault...not fully following directions) was the spray coverage on bare and painted surfaces. It formed a sticky film that I could only get off with MEK. I tried priming over the sticky surface, but the primer did not adhear (As STATED in the direction!). I am confident this product will arrest the rust and provide a suitable primer surface. Thanks Eastwood. Bobby

Great Stuff!
Review by thegunth63 -
Value Quality Price i used this stuff on my 67 camaro subframe after i sanded the rust down with the flap disc and wire cup setup on my grinder and right before my eyes everything started turning black! it actually looked like it was primed when it dried! I was highly impressed. a little bit goes a long way. I used i pint to do two coats on my subframe! i just stole the spray handle off my wife's windex bottle and sprayed it on, chasing it with a brush to work it in.Works GREAT!!

Second Coat bubbled badly
Review by forjack842 -
Value Quality Price First coat went on fine. Waited until black showed (about 1hour) then applied another light coat. This coat bubbled. Had to remove and recoat bubbled areas. Other than that so far so good.

Went on as advertised!
Review by E-tek Racing & Restorations -
Price Value Quality I used it on a heavily rusted area: the box-sides of a 56 Chevy truck undergoing a full resotration. Went on easily with a brush, works well into pinch welds, overlaps and thick rust. Turned black as advertised and dried well. I'll be topcoating with a 2K primer and paint.
